Cameron Conover replied to the topic Sunday Night Tech Forum – To use radios with unknown spurious emissions, or not? in the forum Technical Discussions 9 years, 1 month ago

You can find the procedures for a spectral purity test…[Read more]

The radio is in really good shape, has a drop-in desk-top charger that goes with it. If you register your callsign with DMR-MARC I can go ahead and program the radio up for you.
This radio is upgradeable to the CS-750 Specifications for $60.…[Read more]

I added a couple things to the supplies and equipment spreadsheet.
Caution tape, if anyone has a roll of caution tape we could sure use it.
Also some stakes like a tomato stake type deal that we can use to hold up the caution tape around certain areas.

I’m thinking of selling my AL-811. I don’t use it very much, however I do want to use it during the 13 Colonies Special event, so I don’t really want to sell it until after then, 2nd week of July. Asking $400 for it.
Come play with it if you are interested.

Cameron Conover started the topic Hams Have some crazy ideas, Mobile installs and Grounding. in the forum Technical Discussions 9 years, 7 months ago

It set me off again. “Oh my goodness, new electronics systems in a car mean we have to change the rules on how we ground our radios!” Here’s the deal, if hams were doing…[Read more]

Running a Flex 5000, the more access to RAM the better. Also, it is highly advisable to use a graphics card with it’s own processing and memory to free up memory on the MB.

No, as far as I can tell, there is absolutely no downside to going with 64 bit.

No, he ended up thinking hard about a Flex 1500 believe it or not. But no orders were placed.
I got a couple Hamsticks, which I haven’t gotten resonant yet, and some cap/inductor tuning tools, and a couple of RF adapters.
Had a lot of fun seeing everyone down there. Also attended the NCQP forum, may be some rules changes for the Club…[Read more]
